Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) has been the standard treatment for Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) since the Diabetic Retinopathy Study demonstrated its benefit nearly 40 years ago,but PRP has inevitable adverse effects on visual function. Intravitreal injection of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) can induce short-term regression of retinal neovascularization(NV). The purpose is to assess and compare the efficacy and safety between intravitreal injection of conbercept and PRP.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is a leading cause of vision loss in patients with diabetes mellitus,which of the initial manifestation of PDR is retinal neovascularization at the disc or elsewhere.Panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) has been the standard treatment for PDR since the Diabetic Retinopathy Study demonstrated its benefit nearly 40 years ago,but PRP has inevitable adverse effects on visual function including peripheral visual field defects, night vision loss, loss of contrast sensitivity.Recent evidences have indicated that anti-vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) treatment can reduce the severity and delay the progression of DR.However,the impact of this treatment on visual function and the effect of anti-VEGF agents on retinal neovascularization compared with PRP remain unclear. It is possible that a long-acting anti-VEGF agent such as conbercept. So we design the study with is a prospective randomized controlled trial about Intravitreal injection of conbercept versus PRP on PDR.Primary outcome is the change in BCVA from screening to 12 months in the study eye measured in the ETDRS letter score at 4 m

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

IVC group

intravitreal injection of conbercept (IVC) group:all study eyes randomised to receive conbercept will receive an intravitreal injection of conbercept 2 mg/ 0.05 mL at baseline and at 1 and 2 moths. Further treatment since months 3 is determined by the degree of regression of neovascularization (NV) of disc and elsewhere on clinical examination

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

intravitreal injection of conbercept

Intervention Type DRUG

conbercept is an anti-VEGF agent and is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for wet age-related macular degeneration

PRP group

panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) group:all study eyes randomised to receive PRP will receive an fill-in PRP in 1-2 two weekly sessions as per routine clinical practice with emphasis on targeting retinal nonperfusion areas

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

PRP

Intervention Type DEVICE

panretinal photocoagulation (PPR) is the standard treatment for proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and is applied to the peripheral retinal tissue to ablate areas of the peripheral retina and thereby reduce retinal oxygen consumption
